William Regal and Daniel Bryan faced off in a mentor vs student match

Daniel Bryan and William Regal have a long history together. While it's been mentioned multiple times before that Bryan trained during his early days in Shawn Michaels' wrestling school, Bryan has given far more credit to William Regal for mentoring him through the years.

The two did meet in a match on Main Event in 2011 (surprising that they'd have such a small stage for such a match) in Liverpool, and William Regal received a great ovation from his home country crowd. However, during his entrance, someone backstage decided to play an absolutely hilarious prank on him.

Just for some context, many many years ago, when he was known as "Steven" Regal in the WWF, this was his abomination of a theme song:

While he was entering to his regular theme song, it was switched over to his old Steven Regal theme song. As the speaker was blasting "He's a maaaan, such a maaaan", you can see William Regal unable to control it and bursting out into laughter. He looked across the ring to Daniel Bryan, who also wasn't able to hold it together.

This was one of the cases of harmless ribs on wrestlers, and to be fair, it was absolutely hilarious. You can see for yourself right below. If you notice carefully enough, even the commentators are struggling to hold it together:
